i am slowly understanding what you mean by showing her hand/leg. i used to cringe at every doji (ie. having the urge to close my wining trade or to jump into rescue at the sight of these dojis) but now i force myself to wait out and see the bigger picture (compound chart formations). and its much more accurate. thanks.

Hello Dongsky
I look at your journal and it makes me to be exited.
You just nailed it.
wonderfull chart exelent entries and the patience that you have not to take part wins.
When i look into your charts i remember FTI words
"after entry watch the mkts.
Is it doing what you thought it should be doing?
are you comfortable with the position, if yes then add to the position.
if not get out, find a different level. and do itagain. and again until you are satisfied with your position."

There is an script that if you apply to the chart you can see exact time of entrys on the chart and exact time of close of every trade
I think that if you go over the trades afterwords to analize them thn this indicator gives add value to the analization and it can help the people that try to learn from your charts.
The viewer can exactly see the spot of entry and the spot of exit even if the trade already closed

The script is in here :

its called "P4L OrderHistory.mq4"
and its charts look like the chart that i attached

Careful, that 10:00am move was likely the cause of poor US PMI data combined with poor liquidity due to bank holiday. I would not be surprised to see any moves made today become negated totally once liquidity returns.

If you look at the trend for euro, you will note that your direction should be short. Try not to go long.

Also, imo I would not try to rescue any trapped trades here; just not worth the risk of snowballing against daily. It's a defensive move for the long term. With the euro and pound the way it is, I guarantee you that there's plenty of trading opportunities ahead.

Since conditions are wonky, I would try to set up base on higher ground to be safe from volatility.

I agree. I have no idea what's gonna happen, but to err on the safe side, I'm reducing positions back to 30% max troops. I may need additional support should the market act funky...which undoubtedly it will do eventually.

I've noticed some people here are using oanda. I'm wondering if anyone's been experiencing some odd "common error" problems. They happen right at the worst time too.

btw, well done dongsky.

So far my oanda platform is doing ok. I have also scaled back on my troops to prepare for any unforeseen intervention.

The daily range seems much tighter then it ought to... something doesn't feel right to me.
